How is this computed?

round(0.45*activity + 0.35*rhythm + 0.20*longevity); archived -> min(score, 10) — computed 2026-09-02. Adoption (stars, forks) is never an input.

A Python wrapper around the Google News RSS feed providing top stories, topic and geolocation feeds, and full-text search with date-range and exact-match operators. It also parses sub-articles (similar stories) from feeds, useful for collecting headline datasets.

Use cases

  • scrape google news headlines in python
  • collect news articles by topic for machine learning training data
  • monitor news mentions of a company or person
  • add a news feed to my website or app
  • search google news by date range and exact phrase
  • extract similar news articles for each headline

When to choose

  • you want free, no-API-key access to Google News data via RSS
  • you need structured search operators like in-title, date ranges, and when: filters
  • you want sub-article/similar-story extraction for ML datasets
  • you are doing lightweight media monitoring or PR tracking

When to avoid

  • you need production-scale scraping at volume, since Google may rate-limit or block your server IP
  • you need clean, enriched, licensed news data with guaranteed uptime - use a commercial news API instead
  • you need full article text, not just headlines and links
  • you depend on Google News RSS behavior staying stable, which can change without notice
